Apparently they were preparing the vineyard for an event. The gentleman who was supervising it was nasty. He told us we had to get off the lawn in a very antagonistic way. Would never recommend this to anyone

Really worth while doing while in Milan, the audio was very informative. Loved Leonardo's garden and the Sforzesco castle was huge

An absolutely stunning property, inside and out. The audio guide (app download and take your own headphones) was great as it allowed you to take in each area in your own time and really appreciate the beauty at your own pace. The history of the building and the vineyard are very interesting. The only downside for me is that I got bitten loads here - I was covered in angry, itchy bites when we left and had to go find antihistamines so I’d recommend bug repellent!

Beautiful garden and fascinating building. One of our favorite tours with family. The kids loved the wildlife from snails and turtles to loving cats!
